1coin no loot = higher chance on next coin.
2coin no loot = higher chance on next coin.
3coin loot = reset the chance.
~repeat.
LFR "bonus chance" is separate from the coin rolls.
Chance is reset if you get loot regardless of what boss you coin.
Example. if you ONLY coin Thok for 5 weeks without loot and then decide to try your luck on Immersus and you get loot you also lose your bonus stack for Thok.
In my case I only need the str trinket from thok so the only boss I'm gonna coin roll on until I get the fucking trinket is Thok.

Correct. This also means you can take a chance and use 2 coins on bosses you don't really get a big upgrade from and then spend the last one on the boss you really need and hope you don't get any on the two before.
Think it's 15% - 20% - 25% - 30% and so on the chance for loot but blizzard won't confirm or deny any numbers, 15% is roughly accurate for a "fresh roll" though.

RNG is complete crap lol. If I raid normals, I don't get squat (even with coins). If I go on an alt and do flex, I get nothing (even with coins). If I go into LFR, I get loot from every boss without even using a coin. Hah >:/

I honestly don't think I've gone beyond 6 rolls for a piece of loot. On average, I'm probably getting a piece of loot every 4 rolls. Whether that piece is useful, that's a different story, but these stories about "20+ rolls no loot" are completely bogus.

They're far from bogus. I've gone 10+ with no loot this tier. Not everyone has your rng.

I think you're exaggerating. You're saying out of 18 coins you won one piece of loot. Like 1 piece of actual loot? You count it even if it wasn't an upgrade, or a duplicate item. So is your answer still 1 piece out of 18 coins?

So your guildies are getting to 570 ilvl from just coins? And with 26 heroic kills, you're at 561? Sounds like you guys need a new loot system. 9 ilvls is a massive gap.

Perfect example of why "community" forums are poisonous to the health of a development team. These developers are wasting hundreds of hours trying to stem the tide of incessant bitchery that would never, ever abate so long as these entitled, unfortunate human beings don't get their way.

How do you guys feel about a DKP system like EPGP and how it is affected by this, for example: Player A wins an off-hand, -200 DKP, player B coins said off-hand so gets the same item without spending DKP on it. So in addition to getting the item, player B gets an advantage over player A as he has more DKP left to spend.
Just RNG of course, but if one player has a lot of luck with rolls he will have a DKP advantage as well as a gear advantage over other players, which some people might think unfair. It hasn't bothered me (and i'm lucky enough with loot), but wondering what you guys think.

DKP is a stupid system and promotes toxic behavior regardless of the coin.

Here is how coining/lfr/flex (and garrosh weapon) loot works:It is per boss
Coin and looting seperate
LFR, Flex, Normal and Heroic all seperate

Based on my guilds garrosh kills I am 100% certian that it takes either 7, 8 or 9 kills/coins to recieve an item with certianty. The rules I listed above are easily deduced from statements made by blizzard (such as 10 kills or more will get you loot as said at blizzcon) combined with actually coining and killing bosses. For example I got my 11th garrosh kill this week and if you add coins in I had my chance at it about 20 times, however it was on the 7th heroic kill that I got the heirloom weapon, I coined 5 out of those 7 kills, which totals 12 chances at loot on heroic mode, which again is more than 10 thus you know it is seperate.

My money is on it being 7 kills for 100% chance since my guild saw an insane amount of weapons drop on our 7th garrosh kill and I also got it on my 7th kill (2 weeks later). It could still be 8 or 9 but I dont know anyone who has killed garrosh more than 7 times and not gotten a weapon from him.

Correct. This also means you can take a chance and use 2 coins on bosses you don't really get a big upgrade from and then spend the last one on the boss you really need and hope you don't get any on the two before.

But is it not character independent as well, so if you get miss loot with one character, you might get a higher chance with your alt character since it is literally the next roll that gets increased chance.
